    I was bumbling around El Cajon looking for a place to eat. I thought of having a homemade sandwich with a bag of chips, which is what brought me here. This is a quaint little spot that was relatively busy. I perused the menu on the wall (very helpful) and ordered with the gentleman at the counter. I was going to take it to go, but wanted to experience the vibe here. I ordered an East County Native sandwich with turkey bacon and avocado. It was a bit messy, but good. I was full and happy. Great customer service! My sandwich could have been cleaner (avocado finger marks on the outside), but tasted fine. Thanks for the pickle! I'll see u guys again..

    I was in the area and WOW this place got me. Off the bat, the owner was very friendly and it shows how much work he's put into this place. The sandwich I had was top tier. I ordered the Rockin Ronnie which comes with turkey, salami, and chipotle mayo. I mean this sandwich melted in my mouth. To top it off I got their homemade chocolate chip cookies to end my lunch with something sweet. This is a must-try deli to add to your list! I look forward to trying more sandwiches off their menu

    Stopped in for lunch. I love a cold sandwich on a warm day. Owner was in Front taking orders. I got their #1. Delicious. Thank you

    Jody's Special in a wrap (added avocado and grilled onion)

    Tried something a little different today and it exceeded my expectations!! I've never been disappointed by anything I've ordered here but this wrap was exactly what I was craving with flavors that exploded in every bite!! Another win for Sandwich Bags in my book! Highly recommend #20 (Jody's Special), add avocado and grilled onions and in a spinach wrap!! Totally hit the spot for this nursing Mama!! Thanks Art and crew for being consistent and satisfying every sandwich craving I get!

    We were looking for a place to get a sandwich and my cousin recommended The Sandwich Bags. We ordered the Santee Hero and it tasted excellent. The sandwich came grilled panini style, It was nice to have a sandwich with both sides toasted and not moist. We also got the pablano chicken soup and splurged for the large size, with plenty extra to take home. We walked thru door and Art greeted us as if he had known us forever. The place was very clean and the employees that brought our food were very courteous. Plenty of parking, seating inside and outside. We don't live in the area, but will definitely make a trip back when craving a delicious sandwich.

    My build my own...avocado, bacon, cream cheese, cucumbers, lettuce, oil&vinegar, mustard, mayo...grilled.

    Wow! Their menu instantly reminded me of Cheesecake Factory's menu...extensive. But honestly,…read morethat's not a bad thing because there are plenty of options. They have everything from hot sandwiches and cold sandwiches to salads, wraps, and even breakfast items. You can order at the counter or on the kiosk. I ordered on the kiosk. Simple and quick. I ordered the wild-caught salmon sandwich with salmon, arugula, and garlic aioli. The salmon was cooked perfectly. They were a little skimpy on the aioli, so the sandwich was kind of dry, but it was still good. I also got a side of fries, and those shoestring fries were nice and crispy. Prices are reasonable, and there's seating both inside and outside. Shout out to Crystal. I don't know if she's the manager, but she definitely cares about quality customer service. Someone ordered the Green Beret sandwich, and it was brought out on toasted bread when apparently it wasn't supposed to be. She immediately went to the counter and let the cooks know about it. She meant business, and I liked that.

I ordered some soup and French Fries only because my companion likes their food. So, if u dont mind throwing $20 away to eat your food outside in uncomfortable chairs were the flies congregate, go ahead.

The customer service is always friendly, welcoming, and genuine -- the kind of neighborhood energy you just don't get everywhere anymore. It's not a huge space inside and the decor is a little outdated, but honestly that's part of the charm. This is a small business with a BIG impact, and the community clearly supports them because the food quality speaks for itself -- everything is fresh. My go-to order is the Big Chomp on a lettuce wrap when I'm trying to cut carbs but still want to be full. They split open a head of crisp iceberg lettuce and pack it with meats like turkey and beef, plus all the sandwich veggies -- onions, tomatoes, pickles -- and whatever condiments you want. It's crunchy, refreshing, and so satisfying that you honestly don't even miss the bread. Now when I'm extra hungry, their breads are fresh and the sandwiches are top-notch across the board. You really can't go wrong. Just a heads up -- they close at 3 PM daily, so if you're not there by then, you'll have to catch them another day. You can call ahead or stop in, but either way you won't be disappointed. PSA: Don't forget to grab a sandwich punch card. Rack up those punches and you'll earn a free sandwich. Thank me later

Inside the deli was clean and well kept which is what we want when going to a sandwich shop. The staff however, not the most polite you'll meet. We purchased some sandwich combos and picked them up. Once there we asked if they could add some more bags of chips at checkout. The lady at the register said in a stern voice "ive already put your chips in the bag" We held up a couple more bags and told her we wanted to ADD chips. No apologies for her Attitude. The sandwiches though...dry and bland. Meat didnt taste fresh and as though they left it out and it dried out a bit. Bread was of cheap quality. The overall taste of the sandwiches left me wanting more. First and last experience with Deli Belly.

    These guys have been a reliable place to get a very good sandwich for some time now. I did not know…read morethat they had one available in East County too, however. I ordered the Sky Park Sandwich on Wheat. It comes with EverRoast Boar's Head sliced chicken breast, Pepper Jack Cheese, and bacon. You can add more ingredients if you like off a list. I added red onions, tomatoes, and lettuce with oil and vinegar for $13.49 plus tax. You can choose from a little side of macaroni or potato salad. The sandwich was very good, but they did add alfalfa sprouts in the sandwich. There must have been a miscommunication when I said now way to the sprouts. I picked out the most I could. The deli chicken was very tasty and so was the Pepper Jack Cheese. I liked the wheat bread but it was a little on the dry side. I expected it to be a little moister, but it did tasty good. Overall, the sand was good. The service was good, too. The young man did a good job explaining the process and did a good job putting the sandwich together with the exception of the sprouts. The older gent, who I learned was his grandfather, was very friendly. The deli is inside a liquor store. They offer three tables out in front with chairs.
